Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Mr Happy]

I’ve a feeling Coleman will lead the team out on Sunday


Then go off injured after 10 mins

Then retire hopefully

Wouldn’t shock me, we think our new young striker is a bit raw so instead of getting a proper team and system in place to help him out and get him up to speed faster, we instead block his pathway and development with another over the hill, overpaid striker and don’t address the actual key imbalances in the side and then wonder why another new striker hasn’t magically solved our issues

Or we need three strikers and Chermiti isn't good enough

It’s a shame there’s no way to watch a footballer play football prior to buying them, that would really help.

Starting to seem like that season we had Koeman in charge and bought all the #10's available

Moyes didn’t seem to have the best working relationship with the DOF/recruitment team at West Ham, did he? I don't want to be the club that relinquishes transfer decisions to the manager because it will end badly.

Hammond is going to turn us into Leeds...I can feel it in my bones.

I hope that way we are guaranteed to sign Tanaka

Didn't he also play a major role in Newcastle's recruitment after the takeover that seemed to benefit them?

In many ways welcome Jamie V.

Tbf Moyes wouldn't be able to accurately assess a striker's ability anyway. Has always been his achillies heel.

And I'm not having that people didn't know this ahead of the purchase. Just seems like the usual Everton chaos this. It's like the ghost of Kenwright is still with us.

Mate him and Kinnear are giving me terrible vibes.

Brilliant use of our scarce funds once again

He's an old school manager who wants to have that autonomy to decide transfers so I could definitely see some tension developing under a committee setup

Has that journo any credibility. We really need to remember people will post absolute horse dung to get clicks.

Seriously how many Premier League teams gave decent game time to 3 different centre forwards last year?

You’re not keeping 3 centre forwards happy, especially when you only play with 1 striker

I just do not think striker is anywhere near our priorities and I’d like to see us actually put some faith in our new young striker who was good enough to lead the line for a Villarreal side that qualified for the Champions League

I'm sure media like this makes Barry feel great.

The hospital in Crowthorne? I cycled past it last weekend!

Yes mate. Live in Jennetts Park so just around the corner for me

 

[dixienormous]

Ohh you're warden then?

Nurse if you will

Anyone got this article? Behind a pay wall. Seems to be talking about disagreements over targets.
